New Opportunity for Indonesian Master Studies Scholarship in Sweden

Defence and security company Saab will award a Master’s Scholarship to an Indonesian student as a part of the continuing drive to build a future engineering talent base for the nation.

A new scholarship opportunity has been created by Saab together with Chalmers University of Technology, one of Sweden’s top technical universities, in the subject of communication engineering. The scholarship continues the flow of Indonesian students to Sweden for technical studies and will commence in second half of 2017. Last year, Saab together with Sweden’s Royal Institute of Technology (KTH), awarded a scholarship to an Indonesian student for Master studies in aerospace.

This year, Saab and Chalmers will collaborate to provide all-inclusive scholarship funding for a student from Indonesia to pursue the communication engineering programme at Chalmers in Gothenburg, covering both living allowance and tuition fee.

The scholarship application is open only to Indonesian citizens currently enrolled at an Indonesian university, to or recent graduates holding a technical bachelor's degree from an Indonesian university. To read more about the application process and to submit an application, please visit:
